Finding focus
QUESTION: Masters, sometimes it is hard to be who I am today (spiritually) and wish I could just switch everything off of the things what I notice constantly around me! That is probably why I love sleeping so much. Do you have any advice to give to calm my sensitive Soul when I am awake, to make my life a bit easier to get on with, feel like I am being watched all the time and sometimes it’s getting me down? When I meditate my Mind can travel so far that I can’t even relax then! Any advice would be very helpful. ~Sylvia, Holland
ANSWER: Your major problem is your expectation that you have to allow everything into your consciousness in order to be “in the now.” You are a hyper-sensitive being who picks up on the energies around you. What you have to do to balance up your life is learn to focus your sensitivity.
Start with separating the negative and positive energy in which you find yourself. Take anything you perceive as negative and block it from coming into your awareness. You can do this by surrounding your body in a white bubble of positive loving energy. When you seek refuge in sleep, it is usually to escape the negativity, which is like having a loudspeaker blasting irritating music at you constantly.
You are frequently under observation by negative beings because they envy your positive energy and want to feed on it. You can chase them away by intentionally sending unconditionally loving energy to some inanimate object. They will be drawn to that object to snack, and you can direct your attention elsewhere.
During meditation you will only go as far as you allow yourself to travel. You have not set any limits. When you begin your session, have an idea of what you want to happen during your trip. Do you want to go someplace to meet a guide to have a conversation and learn more about being a soul? Travel to an interesting place? Re-experience a past incarnation? You are the driver – you just have not been conscious of the fact. Map your destination and you will go only to that place.
